I was on a walk with my 2 dogs this evening when I walked past what looked like some sort of fungi that had fallen from a tree. We had a bit of high winds and rain yesterday and last night. When I went in for closer observation I realized it was a wad of pine pitch. There is very little debris in the pitch and it had air dried as it was not sticky on the outside. It looks like it must have broken off of larger wad in a nearby pine tree. I will have to investigate more later. ;)
   I took this as a good omen and will use this for a batch of pitch glue. Maybe it absorbed some of the strength from the storm. 8)       Pat

ps, my knife has a 4 1/2" long handle for size reference. The mass weighs 1.65oz
